Yes!! Another excuse to bust out the George Foreman Grill. Even though the weather was telling me otherwise. I went behind Mother Nature's back and grilled up some chicken tenders. Take that June gloom!!!! I still had that big bag of chicken tenders from Costco. Amazingly enough, I've almost gone through the whole bag. There's probably a few pieces left.

I decided on a slightly Mediterranean flavor to my tenders. Added some herbs and spices to some plain yogurt and marinated the chicken for an hour.

I made a simple dijon-mayo dip to go along. I was planning on a peanut sauce, but I didn't have enough ingredients to pull it off. Still a nice meal.

Season both sides the chicken tenders with salt and pepper, then pour over the marinade onto each pieces. Coating each one with the mixture. Set aside for at least 30min to 1 hour. This may be done in advance.

Preheat your grill.

When the grill is ready, cook the tenders 3-5 min per side. Get a nice browning on the crust.

OOh, good one! These would be great in wraps too. I used to use my george foreman all the time, but now I have the cuisinart version. Its even better cause it has removeable and different plates that lets u do pancakes as well as grilling. I hate buying loads of kitchen gadgets cause it makes the kitchen look ugly when its all stuffed with things, but i couldn't be with out a griller of some kind :)

These look wonderful! Now I'm wishing I had a George Foreman grill like you - it is raining and I don't feel like braving the weather to use my outdoor grill! Love the idea of marinating with the greek yogurt... I love that stuff!

Okay. I am Eric's wife's cousin and I like looking at his blog and letting my mouth water over all the delightful food. I found your blog through his and I actually made this chicken recipe for dinner the other day. It was DELicious!!! Plus so simple and easy, and I already had all the ingredients. Perfect. I will be trying out more of your recipes for sure :) Thanks for posting!
